I took this photo today in SASKATOON within hours of the ICE remigration Gestapo executing another person in the US.

1/2 way through the first set a verbal & then immediate yellow card to a coach, some yelling beginning of the 2nd. A messy triple line net play call by me -I say "I don't know what I'm calling", to which the coach standing beside me laughs &has relaxed banter comments as the R1 makes the right call.
